[Haiti] Battles: Armed clash

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. Armed clashes occurred on 2 April 2025 between Viv Ansanm Gang members and police forces in the Tabarre-Croix des Missions area of Haiti's Ouest department, with fighting extending to nearby Butte Boyer and Tabarre 27 neighborhoods. Casualty figures remain unknown.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates and whether gang violence spreads to affect Haiti's already fragile logistics infrastructure and commercial operations.

Watch points

• Monitor for escalation or spread of gang activity to Port-au-Prince's main commercial districts and transportation corridors
• Track any disruption to fuel distribution networks or food supply chains serving the capital region
• Watch for international shipping or aid delivery impacts if violence affects port access routes
